Ok, so I moved from dish to line cook not too long ago. I'm full time and my hours changed from 10-3 or 8-3 depending on stock days for dish to 10:30-7 and I love the job. But fuck does it hurt to walk or stand on my feet after sitting or laying down for a bit. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced this and could give me some advice. I know it's something I just have to get used to and with time I'm sure it won't be as bad/go away completely. But right now, I refuse to sit down because I have to prep myself to stand up. Like mentally preparing myself. I've experienced a lot of physical pain in my life and this has got to be by far the worst type. But other than that I love the job especially the baking and the cooking. Prepping is kind of boring lol and for context I do work a retirement home idk if that changes anything, just thought I'd share that detail in case it does.

Hi, I accidentally took Seroquel this morning and it is my night meds (300mg) i just gotta know if I should take my Wellbutrin XL (300mg) now? I am feeling very drowsy and dizzy. Feels like vertigo. Having a hard time writing this post too and I'm at work. I'm a line cook so I'm doing my best to be safe.

So I'm moving up to being on the line. I start training Wednesday night. It's a great opportunity and I'm gonna put effort into it and I'm really honored they want me behind the line. The head chef is so adorable about it too cause he's more excited than anyone else. I always give something 3 months to really see if I'm gonna like it. But it's not just nerves, of course I'm nervous it's something new. But I like being a dishie... I love being a dishie. I'm really good at it, I get space for myself, I get to listen to MY shitty music, I'm comfortable there. And I'm someone who particularly runs head first change, change is only scary if you give it that power. It's not so much that I'm scared, I just love doing what I do. And if I'm being totally honest.. I don't know if I actually want to do it. Like I said, I'll test the waters because who knows, maybe I'll fall in love with it. But also I've never cooked before in my life, it would be a nice skill to obtain tho lol plus I'm really into different perspectives.. I know how to prep and shit like that, from a previous job but that was at a grocery store. I'm just coming here to vent about it.. maybe offer up some advice if you got any?

I really freaking love dishwashing, I hope I'm able to fall in love behind the line!
